Ouch 8 hrs from me.

 

[PassivAggressor]

Big ole Texas lol.

 

[PassivAggressor]

Holy crap that was awesome. I can't believe how much fun that was! The CS sways and H&R springs did great. Now I just need CS struts and stickier tires.

welcome to the addiction.

 

[PassivAggressor]

Haha thanks. It surely is my new hobby.

welcome to the addiction.

Could not have said it better!

Haha thanks. It surely is my new hobby.

It is amazing how fun auto-X it is, at first to drive like a maniac and not get in trouble... then to start realizing how much skill is needed it to go faster (At least that has always been my case!). That is when it really kicked in for me, trying to improving my driving.

Have fun!

 

[PassivAggressor]

I completely agree. As I was driving home I was like ok what do I need to make this an autocross weapon! Truth be told though the car was already pretty great besides the stock tires. One of the things I like about autox is getting to know my car. I already feel more confident in my driving.

 

[PassivAggressor]

Pax and class times.

The guy in 1st with the Mazda 3 had Hankook RS-3's, but was otherwise stock.

I'm 16th pos. on the pax.
Overall I'm happy with my results especially with my first time and I improved after every round. I can't wait for next time!

 

[eyeballs]

it is great that you can get so many runs in! When I started autocrossing in Tallahassee it was a nice small laid back group. Now here in Atl its 100+. Tons of fun still but no slacking off. Yet somehow its run so well I can be done by lunchtime.

 

[PassivAggressor]

Yah I definitely liked all the runs. The seasoned guys said that its still cool out so many people didn't come.

You just have to beat the FIT!!!
No excuses!!!
I wanted to buy a FIT but the M2 just handled better. I'll give you 1 year to do it, and not by spending money on mods but by improving as a driver. Can You do it?

 

[PassivAggressor]

Haha maybe. I do think I could have been a little quicker, but that fit had extreme rubber man! I know I can with better tires.

 

[CorkSport]

I would like to know what the fit had done to it. That is a decent jump in times or are you still running stock tires?

[PassivAggressor]

Stock tires. The fit did have way more aggressive tires, suspension, race harness and I'm sure a couple other things. If I had better tires I know my times would have been better.

 

[Joker2]

Just get better tires and beat the Fit!
